Former Guns N’ Roses keyboardist Chris Pittman is reportedly suing Axl Rose over unpaid wages dating back several years.

According to TMZ, Rose signed a promissory note to Pitman in 2011 stating that he would pay the multi-instrumentalist $125,000 for a year’s worth of work by October of 2012...and that bill remains outstanding to this day.

Pitman’s suit seeks the original amount – plus interest – for a new total of $163,000.

The musician joined Guns N’ Roses in 1998 and appeared on 2008’s “Chinese Democracy”; he and was on board until earlier this year when Rose, Slash and Duff McKagan announced a mini-reunion lineup that would set out on the “Not In This Lifetime” world tour.
